Hi All,
I have a question about the modifications done to the engine mounted oil cooler when a 3.2l is mounted in a 914. Rich Johnson posted an excelent picture of the modification in a recent post and I include it here. My 3.2l cooler was already modified when I got the engine. Now I want to chanfge the routing of the oil line where it connects to the cooler, because it interferes with taking the valve cover off. The oil line is a stainless braided one with Earl's AN type fittings on the end. When Rich says AN or metric threads for the conversion, is there a type of oilline that wants metric threads used in this situation, or do AN fittings have metric threads? How can I figure out what thread I need so I can buy or have fabricated a short extender for the oil cooler output? - 914-6 style oil cooler modification (metric or AN) thanks Mark Attached image(s) |

Pictured on the cooler is metric, but you can have AN put on as well. If you have no adaptor in your line then it will likely be an AN.
